Fair enough. I feel like there could be logical loopholes still to get around that. Like in the case of getting a robotic arm to replace an existing arm, what if you control your perception enough, to say “I give my “flesh arm” for a “metal appendage with these qualities” or something like that. As long as you can convince yourself that it…[Read more]

Cool! Trade off magic systems are always really fun, because they have good narrative effects. Someone that just wants power may have trouble getting a lot of it, because they care about it more than what they have to sacrifice. Someone that does have things they care about enough, they don’t want to sacrifice that. So no one is going to…[Read more]

Yeah, and Lost Metal is supposed to be big in exploring aspects of the Cosmere as well. At least a bunch of things from other books will apear.

@jonas

Unity is not the confirmed one, but you’ll find out which one is if you read Stormlight 3.5.

Really, interesting. That’s the one my sister is reading next I believe, while I start Elantris, then we’ll swap.

@jonas

So the weird thing is, Brandon Sanderson confirmed that Renarin is the first person to bond a corrupt spren. It seems to be implied that his future sight is only because of the corruption, and not a normal Truthwatcher ability. But then what is going on with this ancient Truthwatcher? If he isn’t corrupted, then is future sight a normal Tru…

Oh really? Cool! Herald-spotting is definitely pretty fun. Especially since their names vary so much with time, nation, and language. It keeps you guessing!

@highscribeofaetherium

Ooh really?? Most excellent

👀👀👀

I’m going to assume that doesn’t account the one about their wedding though 😂

@thearcaneaxiom @jonas

Here are two interesting tidbits I’ve been speculating on. See what you think.

In one of the cabinets in Urithiru, a gemstone message from an ancient Truthwatcher says “I foresaw this.” That’s not the whole thing, but it’s the important part.

Secondly, what about that part when sodium screams “WE KILLED YOU”? Who is ‘we’?

That is a very important point. It makes sense that seeing the future isn’t necessarily a corrupt quality, as that’s a shared ability of all the shards as far as I know. Yet the…[Read more]

Yeah, the way that it jumped between perspectives worked really well. A movie version of this scene would just be incredible!

I know! The amount of purely cinematic moments throughout the series is incredible, but this would be an epic avengers style climax in theaters, only better.

What do you think about what’s happening with Renarin? Th…

@jonas

It was awesome!!! The climax felt felt like a continuous streak of mind-blowing unfolding and action. I’m currently wondering about Dalinar’s relationship with the Honor shard at this point though, because he ascended, but not completely? Or he’s somehow sharing it with the StormFather?

Me and My Sister Just finished Othbringer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@rae

Cool! The best way to work with 7 when it comes to things like cycles, is to simply take advantage of the fact that 7 is a prime number. That way you can factor it with other numbers to get a series of unique combinations.

@savannah_grace2009

Sorry I haven’t gotten back to this. This seems fine. There isn’t much to say that I can tell, maybe you can show her coming up with different names, show the list itself. Have her second guess some parts, then change others. Just the show not tell type of thing is all that comes to my mind right now.

@hybridlore

Fair enough, sounds good to me!

@loopylin

I’m good either way!

I guess I’ll just do it right now though since I have time

EZRIAN

“So, if this isn’t one of his jokes, where are we? Are we still on Alick? Are we still even in the Wond Galaxy?””

Ezrian stared at the young man, mulling over the foreign words. The context made it sound as though they…[Read more]

I’ve missed our boys so muuuuchhh 😭😭😭❤️

ZYRIN

He wrapped his arms around himself. It was getting darker, making the halls around them seem more ominous and foreboding.

Zyrin glanced over at Dylan, walking beside him. They seem to have somehow lost Jocelyn and the furry little scowl creature. And it made him a little worried…[Read more]

@loopylin

Is your turn to RP or is it mine? I don’t remember 😅

@jonas

That works. I like 9, it has fun properties. 12 does to of course😆
